▲'''Heelis''', known as Lady Judge, is the leader of a [[Lossand]]in [[Profession]] and presiding member of the [[Taishin]] council.
== Appearance and Personality ==
Lady Heelis is an elderly woman with pale skin and her grey hair in a heart-shaped pompadour. She is seen wearing the standard clothing of the Taishin, along with golden hoop earrings.{{book ref|ws1|4}}
Heelis takes her job very seriously and follows the letter of the law carefully. She highly values impartiality, and her trust is not easily earned. Though she comes across as cold, she works hard to protect her people from any perceived threats.
== History ==
It is unknown how long Heelis has served as Lady Judge, though it is implied she has held the position for a number of years.{{book ref|ws1|6}}
When the Taishin voted on the future of the [[Diem]], Heelis voted in favor of dissolving it, however she then declares the proceedings void after [[Kenton]] argues a legal technicality that was not observed.{{book ref|ws1|5}} She later confided in Kenton that her vote was primarily a matter of solidarity. She claims that she hopes Kenton can successfully change the minds of the Taishin, though she offers little hope that he will be successful.{{book ref|ws1|5}}
She showed a great deal of trust in [[Ais]], whom she has known for eighteen years, tasking her with spying on Kenton and reporting back despite Ais's personal biases towards [[sand master]]s.{{book ref|ws1|6}}
